wheels and the electric motor.
Motor-to-Wheel Flow
B
Represents the hybrid electric motor. The higher the
motor power is, the larger the circle around this node.
Any time the vehicle is ready to be driven, the motor
node illuminates.
Electric Motor
C
Shows the direction of power flow between the high-
voltage battery and the electric motor. Flow toward
the motor indicates the battery is providing power to
accelerate the vehicle (discharging the battery). Flow
toward the battery indicates the electric motor is
providing power to the battery (charging the battery).

Battery-to-
Motor Flow
D
Includes all power usage from the low voltage
accessories such as the climate control fan, head-
lights and heated seats. The higher the power usage
is from these accessories, the larger the circle around
the node. This node illuminates anytime the vehicle
is on since there is always some low level power in
use.

Other
E
Includes the power usage from the high-voltage
climate control components such as the electric A/
C compressor. The higher the power usage is from
these components, the larger the circle around this
node.

F
Represents your high-voltage battery. A circle illumin-
ates around the node when the high-voltage battery
is receiving power from regenerative braking or engine
charging. The higher the power going into the high-

the engine is on and using fuel (there are some cases
where the engine is on, but not using any fuel). When
the engine is on, but not using fuel, the engine node
is active, but the fuel flow path is off. An example of
this is when your foot is off the accelerator pedal and
the vehicle is traveling at a high speed.

Provides you with the reason(s) the gasoline engine
is on. When the gasoline engine is off, this display
does not appear.Engine On due to reasons
displayed by the system are in a chart following this
list.

J
Shows the direction of power flow between the
engine and the electric motor. The direction indicates
if the engine is providing power to the high-voltage
electrical system, or if the high-voltage electrical
system is providing power to control or start the
engine.
Motor-to-Engine Flow
K
Represents the gasoline engine. It illuminates only
when the gasoline engine is on. The higher the engine
power is, the larger the circle around this node.
Engine
L
Shows the direction of the power flow between the
engine and the wheels.
Engine-to-Wheels Flow
M
Represents the power going to the wheels. The higher
the wheel power is, the larger the circle around this
node. When the engine is off, drive power displays in
blue. When the engine is on, drive power displays in
grey.

1 The battery-to-motor flow includes
battery power the vehicle is using for
acceleration. It does not include energy the
vehicle is using for accessories (such as air
conditioning, headlights and radio). This
screen displays accessories and climate
usage separately. 2
Accessories
indicates electrical power
demands from your vehicle ’s accessory
systems. Accessories use power but do not
contribute to making the vehicle move. The
power flow displays power usage from the
climate control system and other
accessories separately.
3 The climate control system may
determine A/C is necessary even when you
turn it off. In this case, you may see some
climate power when the A/C is off.
